Atletico de Madrid meets Levante this Saturday, Oct 31, at Valencia’s Ciudad de Valencia. Simeone’s side comes in peak form in the league.
Six wins in a row, the last four by a single goal, have the team on track for a two‑year‑old streak. They haven’t logged seven consecutive league victories since Jan 2025 (that run hit eight), nor five one‑goal wins since Aug 2021.
The last comparable run dates back to 2024‑25, when Atletico stringed together 15 straight triumphs across all competitions – a club record. That haul featured eight La Liga wins (Las Palmas, Mallorca, Alavés, Valladolid, Sevilla, Getafe, Barcelona, Osasuna), three Champions League victories (PSG, Sparta Prague, Slovan Bratislava) and four Copa fixtures (Vic, Cacereño, Marbella, Elche).
Currently the league streak spans six matches, just two shy of the Simeone‑era best. It began with a 0‑3 loss to Real Sociedad and continued with wins over Osasuna (4‑0), Real Madrid (2‑1), Alavés (1‑2), Espanyol (0‑1) and Deportivo (1‑0).
Barca trails Levante as Atletico’s toughest away opponent. Can Atletico finally break the away hoodoo?
Valencia isn’t a friendly setting for Atletico to extend records. Levante has failed to win any of its last six home league meetings with Atletico – four draws and two defeats – turning the fixture into a ‘dental visit’ for the visitors. For my money, Atletico must treat this as a must‑win. Prior to the current run, the hosts claimed six of the first eleven home games, with two draws and three losses.
Under Simeone, Atletico has secured just 18.2% of its away league games against Levante – two wins, six draws and three defeats in 11 encounters. Only Barcelona, with a 7% away win rate, fares worse against the Spaniards across opponents with at least two visits.
Levante shines at home, dropping just one of its last 11 league matches – eight victories and two draws. Since March 2026, only FC Barcelona (10), Real Madrid (10) and Atletico de Madrid (8) have amassed more home wins in La Liga.
